Octopuses Garden
Remember Ringo's song "Octopuses Garden" from 1968??
The idea of “Octopus’s Garden” came to Ringo Starr when he was in Sardinia in 1968, on holiday with his family after having temporarily leaving The Beatles during their recording of the “White Album” due to tensions in the group. Starr ordered fish and chips, but the waiter mistakenly gave him squid, a first time for him, and he said of it, “It was okay. A bit rubbery. Tasted like chicken.” The captain went on to tell Starr about how octopuses travel along the seabed picking up stones and other shiny objects and create gardens with them. He later wrote a octopus children's book about Octopuses.
